Marketa Richnavska Poems

Why did I have to meet you?
Why did you need to show?
Oh, please, please, leave me
leave me all alone
...

When someone tells you what to do
and you once tell them no
When somebody is above you
You don't know where to go
...

I stopped searching desperately for the match
in need to find something real
for I know I never get what I'm looking for
...

I hate waiting for better times
hate wondering why
hate pain
I know how usual that sounds
...

It's the hour
It's the time
Our bodies should be one
...

There walks a girl with a death
Always staying behind her back
She wonders if its just a spirit
Which only she can see
...

I want to soak into your chest
and lie like that for some time
I want to smell your essence in the rest
without others taking it as crime
...

The screams inside my chest
Won't let me stay in rest
It's not my heart that moans
It's my demon's underdose
...

My soul
does not moan
anymore.
It purrs
...

How am I supposed
not to want to live fully
when everything I hear from you
since I was a child is
...
